The Big One is the 27th episode of the fourth series of Numberblocks. It is the 87th episode overall.

Synopsis[]

One finds a way to keep adding ones all the way to 99.

Plot[]

Zero meets One, who is excited to show off that she can count higher than ever before. She showcases her row of 10 by 10 springs, with flippers for each 10 interval. Then One throws a mystery surprise gift to the last flipper, and begins to count up using the magic mirror that can copy one of her to a spring and add with the last number, while she rides her scooter.

Characters[]

Math Magic[]

  • 0 + 1 = 1
  • 1 + 1 = 2
  • 2 + 1 = 3
  • and so on until... 99 + 1 = 100
  • 13 - 10 = 3
  • 10 + 4 = 14
  • 80 ÷ 8 = 10
  • 10 × 8 = 80
  • 100 ÷ 1 = 100

Cultural References[]

  • Fifty saying "We're halfway there!" is a reference to the Bon Jovi song, Livin on a Prayer. Coincidentally, the song is played on a guitar.

Trivia[]

  • All the Numberblocks from 0-100 appear in this episode; however, all new, not-a-multiple-of-10 numbers beyond Twenty are in compound form.
    • This is the "largest" number of characters to debut in a single episode, at 67.
    • Originally, every Numberblock featured in the episode was to appear in their “figured-out” form. This idea was scrapped due to the short screen times each one would have, which later inspired the creation of the Compound Numberblocks.
  • This is the third (fourth if Eleven's cameo in The Wrong Number is counted) time a Numberblock debuts before their namesake episode, in this case, it's One Hundred, whose namesake episode is the next episode.
  • After One Hundred splits up, 100 Ones are seen at the same time. This is a Numberland record, beating Hiccups (which had 40 Ones).
  • Every non-multiple of 10 greater than 10 lack arms when they appear. This is likely an error, though it could also be intentional.
  • Despite most of the Numberblocks appearing as compounds, this episode is the only episode with all the Green Level 4 and Blue Level 5 characters.
  • In Release date order, Twenty-One, Twenty-Two, Twenty-Three, Twenty-Four, Twenty-Five, Thirty-Five, and Forty-Five are the only compound Numberblocks to debut compound or figured-out before this episode.
  • For a brief moment, The Sixty part of Sixty-Eight feels nervous when the One adds up to them, as Sixty expresses “duck!” by moving her face to the bottom.
  • Forty makes expression faces when the forties add up.

Errors[]

  • When Eight is counting up, he has four normal limbs, a common occurrence in some episodes.
  • In one scene, Eighty's badge turns purple.
  • In one scene, One Hundred's pupil becomes completely black.
